core files

Hi, I am observing a large number of 15 megabyte files of the following kind, which is taking up a lot of space on my PC, how can this be turned off ?

i believe these might be crash core dump files, so the meshagent is crashing/kernel panicing have you checked your syslog/messages files for events?

Thanks, yes it looks like that, but a question is it possible to somehow disable dump generation or have them cleaned up by themselves ? (I have 4 000 Linux hosts, all different and it is very difficult to bring to the same state, and dump takes up space).

That is something u need to set in the OS, it's nothing to do with meshcentral or meshagent, u need to ask the OS to stop generating them, U can also check in ur config.json that use don't have the agentcoredump enabled as meshagent will try to upload them files back to meshcentral for u to debug if it detects it crashed
